Justin Timberlake Gets Wet in Ice Bucket Challenge for Charity

Justin Timberlake was left shivering after accepting an ice bucket challenge to raise funds to fight Lou Gehrig's disease.
Over the past two weeks, a fundraising phenomenon has taken social media by storm, with participants given the task of either pouring a large bucket of freezing water over themselves and donating $10 (£5.96) to the ALS (Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) Association, or donating $100 (£59.60) instead of accepting the challenge.
Those who agree to take on the task must post a video of themselves on social media completing the challenge, then nominate a few more people to get wet, and they only have 24 hours to accept. On Monday (11Aug14), the challenge reached the SexyBack hitmaker, and Timberlake posted a clip of himself, along with his touring band The Tennessee Kids, pouring the freezing cold water over themselves, leaving them stunned and soaked.
Timberlake, who nominated his pal comedian Jimmy Fallon and his talk show band The Roots to take on the challenge, also posted on his Facebook.com page that they not only donated the $10, but added the $100 plus "a bunch more. It's such a good cause."
Timberlake's former 'N Sync bandmate Lance Bass has also taken the ice bucket challenge, as well as Martha Stewart, Ansel Elgort, Eliza Dushku, Elizabeth Banks, Jennifer Morrison, and Joanna Garcia Swisher.
A representative for the ALS Association told Mashable.com that the organisation has raised $160,000 (£95,322) between 29 July and 11 August (14), which is 10 times higher than the same time period in 2013.

Actor Sebastian Stan is reportedly dating The Lincoln Lawyer star Margarita Levieva. The Captain America: The Winter Solider actor met the Russia-born beauty when they filmed together for Ashton Kutcher's 2009 movie Spread, and their friendship recently turned romantic, according to Us Weekly.
An insider reveals, "They're having fun together and seeing where it goes. They're both very art-minded and thoughtful people."
Stan and Levieva were spotted at Orange is the New Black star Taylor Schilling's 30th birthday party in New York City on Saturday (26Jul14), and they spent the whole night "hanging out together on the terrace," according to another source.
Stan previously dated his former Gossip Girl co-star Leighton Meester as well as Once Upon a Time actress Jennifer Morrison.

CBS Broadcasting
Not every show can go out on a good note. Sure, some shows like Breaking Bad come up with a conclusion that feels right and true to most fans. But usually, when a show has been on the air for a while, finding a tidy way to wrap things up can be a chore.
Even if it's been planned out since the beginning, as was the case with the series finale of How I Met Your Mother, it's hard to make people who have invested time in the characters feel like they've said goodbye in a satisfying way. While the fury swells over the HIMYM's controversial ending, it's helpful to distract ourselves with other epic finale fails Ted and his stupid blue French horn are up against.
The Sopranos
It's like the start of a joke… Tony Soprano walks into a diner.
That's how David Chase sets up the finale of his landmark HBO series. The Mafia boss made famous by the late James Gandolfini rifles through a jukebox at his table and picks out Journey's "Don’t Stop Believing." His wife Carmela (Edie Falco) joins him, soon followed by his son A.J. (Robert Iler). The diner is full. A guy in a hat sits at a nearby booth and may have eyed Tony when he was alone. Another guy in a Members Only jacket enters right before A.J. and seems kind of twitchy. Another pair of guys lingers near the counter. Tony's daughter Meadow (Jamie-Lynn Sigler) is late because she can't parallel park. The jacket guy walks past the Soprano's table and goes into the bathroom. Meadow, finally out of the car, walks towards the door of the diner. She reaches out to open it, the bell rings above the door and… nothing. Cut to a black screen.
Millions of Americans reached for their remote, sure that their TV sets had just completely screwed them over and were poised to call their cable company... when suddenly the credits started to roll. The shock that the series ended with a cut to black set fans howling and looking for answers. Did we go black because a bullet just went through Tony's head? Did the bell mean something? Were the potential threats in the diner just a part of Tony's normal paranoia? What the heck does any of it mean? Chase has steadfastly refused to provide much in the way of explanation, leaving a large section of the fan base furious over the ambiguity.
Seinfeld
The show about nothing decided to make the end about something. That's a problem. With Larry David back to write the final episode of the show that he created with his friend Jerry Seinfeld, the group is about to have some good fortune. The show-within-a-show created by Jerry and George (Jason Alexander) finds new life and the duo, along with Elaine (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) and Kramer (Michael Richards), are jetting off to Paris to celebrate in a private jet courtesy of NBC. But, some mechanical issues ground them and while they wait, they stand around making jokey comments about a car-jacking that they're witnessing. Next thing you know, we're in a court room with every ancillary character in the history of the show, each with his or her own story of how horrible Jerry and his friends are. The foursome is led to a single jail cell after being convicted under a Good Samaritan law and, essentially, starts having a conversation the same as they would at Monk's or Jerry's apartment.
As the credits role, Jerry, dressed in prison orange, performs a stand-up routine for the other inmates. The finale was bloated, lazy, and worst of all, not funny… with jokes falling flat left and right. Apparently most of the humor was supposed to come from the audience seeing the Soup Nazi or Newman one last time. For a show that had delivered consistent laughs throughout its entire run, not remaining true to the style of humor that had made it a cultural phenomenon was the ultimate sin.
St. Elsewhere
The critically acclaimed '80s medical drama had a very loyal fan base that kept it on the air. It's hard to remember but the Boston-based show was the career launching pad for a number of actors, Denzel Washington and Mark Harmon chief amongst them, and was a major influence on later hospital series like ER and Grey's Anatomy. In the finale, a bearded Howie Mandel leaves after finishing his residency and David Morse's soulful Dr. Morrison collects his young son to depart as well. As the show's moral center Dr. Westphal (Ed Flanders) returns to his office, his autistic son (Chad Allen) stares out the window at the falling snow.
Cut to: Westphal now dressed as a construction worker entering an apartment where his son is on the floor staring at a snow globe. What's inside the globe? A replica of St. Eligius Hospital, or St. Elsewhere, as it's more commonly called. So, the whole show was just something that played out in the mind of an autistic boy? Is that it? Really? The whole "it was all fake" ending worked exactly once with the brilliant final reveal on Newhart, but that's it.
Dexter
The closet serial killer played by Michael C. Hall is getting out of the game. With his girlfriend Hannah (Yvonne Strahovski) and son Harrison (Evan and Luke Kruntchev) in tow, he's going to skip out to Argentina and lead a more peaceful life... then a criminal shoots Dex's sister Debra (Jennifer Carpenter). Even though she seems fine, she suddenly lapses into a coma after a massive stroke. Dexter kind of matter-of-factly kills Saxon while he's in police custody, sends Hannah and Harrison off to Buenos Aires, and then takes Deb off life support. He steals her body and dumps it into the sea, before faking his own death. Except when we see Hannah and Harrison way down south, Dexter isn't with them and Hannah is reading a news story about his presumed watery demise.
We hear Dexter in a voice-over explaining how hard it is to be him. So, where is he? Well, why don't we let every fan of the Showtime hit take over from here: "A lumberjack?! He's a f**king lumberjack?! What do you mean he's a f**king lumberjack?!" Before that final scream-inducing reveal — seriously, how many TV sets were broken when remotes went sailing into them immediately after the shot of bearded Dexter? — the episode was pretty lifeless, moving from point A to B to C in a paint-by-numbers kind of way.
Roseanne
Just like with Seinfeld, the ending to Roseanne Barr's long-running sitcom felt like a cheat. Really it was a case where the show probably should've ended a couple of seasons before it actually did. The final season was an unmitigated disaster as the Connors won the lottery and the entire premise of the show changed, becoming a distorted rumination on the meaning of life. In the final episode, we see the cast of the show gathered around the kitchen table eating, laughing, and joking. Then a voice-over from Rosanne tells us that what we've been watching was a figment of her imagination. She's changed things from real life as she's written, including having Dan survive the heart attack that actually killed him two years prior. Worse, she calls into question what parts of the show going back before the heart attack were real (what do you mean David is really Becky's boyfriend?). Considering that the show became a ratings juggernaut with its funny portrayal of the real issues that face lower-middle class Americans, being told that it was just the main character's alternate reality was a slap in the face. And, while it's fine for a finale to be packed with emotion — plenty of fans cried at the end of M*A*S*H and The Mary Tyler Moore Show — the final shot of Roseanne sitting alone on her couch was unnecessarily depressing.

Bryan Cranston won rave reviews for his performance in All The Way after its opening night on Broadway on Thursday (06Mar14). The Breaking Bad actor impressed critics with his portrayal of America's 36th President, Lyndon B. Johnson, in the Bill Rauch directed play about the struggle to pass the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
Cranston's performance was hailed as "effortlessly captivating" by theatre critic Mark Kennedy at Associated Press, while Joe Dziemianowicz at the New York Daily News called him "a force to be reckoned with".
USA Today's Elysa Gardner writes, "Strutting gut-first and affecting a gruff Southern drawl, the leading man delivers the emphatic, crowd-pleasing performance that the play, and Bill Rauch's vigorous direction, require, while also making Johnson affecting as a flesh-and-blood human being."
Hermione Hoby at Britain's Daily Telegraph writes, "The play might be a star vehicle but its star delivers. It's thrilling to watch Cranston go from his default, comic stance of forward-thrust hips and slumped shoulders, to fearsome, chest-puffed, confrontation."
A star-studded audience was in attendance, which included Gayle King, Josh Lucas, Jennifer Morrison, Chris O'Dowd and Hank Azaria.
The production - which also stars This Is Spinal Tap's Michael McKean - is due to run until 29 June (14).

Once Upon A Time co-stars Jennifer Morrison and Sebastian Stan have quietly ended their romance. The couple started dating last year (12), but split four months ago, according to UsMagazine.com.
A source says, "They have gone their separate ways - no bad blood... They just grew apart."
Morrison was previously engaged to her House co-star Jesse Spencer from 2006 to 2007, while Stan was once linked to Glee's Dianna Agron.

Jennifer Lopez and Justin Bieber were among the stars celebrating a big moment in basketball on Thursday night (20Jun13) as Miami Heat beat San Antonio Spurs in a crucial end-of-season game. The Heat won the crunch match 95-88 in a nail-biting final to retain the National Basketball Association (NBA) title for a second year, and a number of famous faces were among the crowd to see the game, including rocker Lenny Kravitz, who tweeted pictures from the AmericanAirlines Arena in Miami, Florida.
Justin Bieber was spotted in the crowd, and he posted on Twitter.com, "Great game", while actress Gabrielle Union was there to cheer on her Miami Heat star boyfriend Dwyane Wade. She later posted pictures online showing her toasting the victory with a glass of Champagne.
Jennifer Lopez was also following the game and she was delighted with the result, writing on Twitter, "Congrats (sic) to the Miami Heat!!!!!!!!!!!!! Great game!" while stars including LeAnn Rimes, Eliza Dushku, Spike Lee, Sean Kingston and John Legend sent messages of congratulation.
Glee star Matthew Morrison was in London at the time of the big match, but he woke up in the early hours to watch the action on TV: "Wow! Up at 5AM in London watching game 7 Loving it!"

Actress Jennifer Lawrence shone the spotlight on former U.S. President Bill Clinton as she handed him a trophy during the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) Media Awards on Saturday (20Apr13). The Hunger Games star took the stage with movie mogul Harvey Weinstein to present Clinton with the Advocate for Change Award at the star-studded bash, hosted by Drew Barrymore at Los Angeles' JW Marriott Hotel.
Clinton was the first American president to appoint openly gay and lesbian workers to all levels of government, but he joked to the crowd that 22-year-old Lawrence is too young to remember his time in office.
He quipped, "I don't know why Harvey made Jennifer do that. She really was like two years old when I became president. I met her backstage and she looked like she was touring the Museum of Natural History."
Leonardo DiCaprio and Charlize Theron also teamed up at the event to honour lawyer Steve Warren for his activism efforts in the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) community.
Other big winners included Emma Watson's drama The Perks of Being a Wallflower, which was named Outstanding Film: Wide Release, while The New Normal, American Horror Story: Asylum and soap opera Days of Our Lives took the top TV honours.
Matt Dallas, Justin Bartha, Mary Steenburgen, Jennifer Morrison, Betty White and Alex Pettyfer were among the famous faces attending the event, which will be followed by another prizegiving in San Francisco, California on 11 May (13).

For its annual "Look Better Naked" issue, Allure dared some of Hollywood's hottest ladies to bare it all. Jennifer Morrison, Naya Rivera, Clare Bowen, and Christa Miller were brave enough to strip down for the magazine (see a video of the shoot at Allure.com).
Ironically, cover girl Amanda Seyfried kept her clothes on — Page Six reports Seyfried as saying at a dinner in honor of the issue, "I would have [posed nude], but my publicist wouldn’t let me!" — but that doesn't mean she kept things PG (or even PG-13).
Seyfried tells Allure that her vocal coach for Les Miserables asked her to channel another role, that of Linda Lovelace in the upcoming biopic Lovelace, while singing. "Imagine deep-throating a penis, get that feeling in the back of your throat, and then sing. That's where your larynx is," Seyfried quotes her coach as saying. Believe you me, I'll never watch a musical the same way again.
For the her shoot (get a behind-the-scenes look here), Seyfried opted for a playful Zac Posen floral dress — and plenty of cleavage —instead of her birthday suit.
I know, I hear ya, you want the naked photos (you sickos). Here you go.
Once Upon a Time's Jennifer Morrison states the obvious by saying, "I've always been an active person, and working out is part of my life." In other "no duh" news, she says she waxed before the shoot.
Naya Rivera says she wasn't nervous for her nude photo shoot at all. In fact, she's "excited to see it." But even more exciting than stripping down for the mag is knowing that she has become a bit of a sex symbol in the lesbian community thanks to her character on Glee. "It's kind of cool — and it makes me feel like a badass. I get more girls than my boyfriend," she tells Allure.
Nashville's breakout star Clare Bowen takes the practical approach to baring it all. "My body isn't going to look like this forever. I think it's lovely to have that preservation," she says. Oh, and she sleeps naked.
Christa Miller, of Couger Town fame, says she grew up around nudity — her mom was a model and would bring her European model friends to their country house to sunbathe topless. But these days, she doesn't walk around the house naked. "If I did, my husband would make me have sex 40 times a day. That's a true story," she says.
The May issue of Allure hits newsstands April 22, 2013.

Actresses Naya Rivera and Jennifer Morrison have stripped off for U.S. beauty magazine Allure. The Glee stunner, former House star Morrison, Nashville's Clare Bowen and TV veteran Christa Miller have bared all for the publication's special Look Better Naked issue, and in the spread Rivera is photographed casually crossing her arms and legs to cover her modesty.
Morrison is pictured wearing only red lipstick, and she insists she didn't go crazy preparing for her close-up, saying, "(I just had) one glass of wine instead of two, fish instead of steak. And I got waxed and shaved my legs."
Bowen had no qualms about posing for the cameras either, explaining, "My body isn't going to look like this forever. I think it's lovely to have that preservation."
However, 48-year-old Cougar Town star Miller admits she amped up her gym routine two weeks before the project - though she planned on indulging in a tasty meal once it wrapped: "I'm going to Courteney (Cox)'s for dinner. I told her, 'You better have carbs.'"
Unlike her gal pals, cover girl Amanda Seyfried is featured on the front cover in a lavender flowing top and when asked why she didn't strip down too, she told the New York Post, "I would have, but my publicist wouldn't let me!"

At the age of ten, she was featured on the cover of Sports Illustrated for Kids with basketball star Michael Jordan

Played a sexy skate chick in "The Grind" starring Adam Brody

Debuted in a leading role in the thriller, "Urban Legends: Final Cut"

Appeared as the haunting Samantha in "Stir of Echoes" with Kevin Bacon

Played Ben Affleck's girlfriend in the holiday release "Surviving Christmas"

Starred on ABC's fairy-tale themed "Once Upon A Time" as the grown-up daughter of Snow White (Ginnifer Goodwin)

Summary

As the sympathetic and conflicted immunologist Dr. Allison Cameron on the hit television medical drama, "House, M.D." (Fox, 2004-2012), actress Jennifer Morrison brought a touch of humanity, not to mention pulchritude, to the grave and occasionally morbid series. Prior to her breakthrough series role, Morrison had her career start in feature films, playing small supporting parts in films like "Intersection" (1994) and "Miracle on 34th Street" (1994). Following forays into the horror genre with "Stir of Echoes" (1999) and "Urban Legends: Final Cut" (2000), Morrison began to make strides on the small screen; first with an episode of "Touched By an Angel" (CBS, 1994-2003), then with a prominent recurring role on the teen hit "Dawson's Creek" (The WB, 1998-2003). After appearing in "Surviving Christmas" (2004) and "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" (2005), Morrison landed the role of a lifetime on "House M.D.," where she spent six seasons as immunologist Dr. Allison Cameron while being romantically involved in real life with co-star Jesse Spencer until 2007. Written off the show in 2009, Morrison moved on to play the mother of James T. Kirk in the "Star Trek" (2009) reboot before playing bounty hunter Emma Swan on the fairy tale hybrid series "Once Upon a Time" (ABC, 2011- ), where the talented young actress continued to thrive as a beloved TV star.
